Become your own Shogun chef and serve this traditional Japanese cuisine. Soak any meat, seafood, or vegetable in the simple marinade of soy sauce, ginger, dry mustard and brown sugar.
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ginger (fresh or powdered)
2 teaspoons dry mustard
4 cloves garlic, mashed into paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Combine the soy sauce, oil, ginger, mustard, garlic, and brown sugar in a plastic container (zip-top bag or tupperware-type containers work well).
To use: marinate fish, seafood, chicken, pork, or beef in this tasty marinade.
Fish and seafood: marinate for less than one hour.
Chicken: 30 minutes to 6 hours (maximum).
Pork: 2-4 hours.
Beef: 8 hours to overnight.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
